Movement Practice: Advanced Dance Technique
F05
Paul Matteson
This advanced class begins with a thorough warm-up focused on strengthening, lengthening, and preparing the body for an investigation of movement possibility. With a weighted approach, we use exercises that explore momentum (on the floor and in the air), working to cultivate both a sense of alertness and a sense of ease. We use partnering work along with set phrase material to tackle improvisational problems, encouraging spatially aware and intuitive choice making.
